Purpose/Goals: |
This planning project included
practitioners and organizational stakeholders. The goal was to
develop viable, evidence-based practice models that would enhance
children’s mental health services in the primary care setting. The
project was instrumental in bringing together stakeholders,
holding a statewide symposium with a national speaker,
sharing best practices and assembling criteria for successful
integrated projects. This information is now being used by the
Department of Health and Human Services to create structures and
reimbursement systems which will facilitate project development
statewide. Below are
several project-related documents, including surveys of primary care
providers and mental health professionals, as well as a list of
current integrated primary care and mental health projects around
Maine. |
